Race Baiters

Some days, I would really like to know how some of these idiots ever got elected. Okay, in one case, I know how, but seriously, how do these Moonbats get elected?

Former President Jimmy Carter is in the news yet again, proclaiming that activists protesting ObamaCare (or whatever you want to call the Leftist plan du jour), as being racist.

From CNN

“When a radical fringe element of demonstrators and others begin to attack the president of the United States as an animal or as a reincarnation of Adolf Hitler or when they wave signs in the air that said we should have buried Obama with Kennedy, those kinds of things are beyond the bounds,” the Democrat who served from 1977-1981 told students at Emory University.

Leftists have been doing that for years in regards to President Bush, portraying him as Hitler and posting images of him with Nazi flags, and calling for his death. I know there are some out there who expressed a wish that Bush could be buried with Reagan. Why is that okay but doing so with Obama not? Why didn’t Carter speak out against those kinds of things when a Republican president was targeted? Why is it unacceptable to the Moonbats on the Left for people to do so with The One, but were okay with it when Bush was the target?

“I think people who are guilty of that kind of personal attack against Obama have been influenced to a major degree by a belief that he should not be president because he happens to be African American.

“It’s a racist attitude, and my hope is and my expectation is that in the future both Democratic leaders and Republican leaders will take the initiative in condemning that kind of unprecedented attack on the president of the United States,” Carter said.

Just because Obama is black does not mean those who oppose his policies and are being vocal about it are racist. It’s because WE don’t like socialism.

What is really amazing is that Jimmy Carter is that Jimmy Carter is an expert on racism, as pointed out by David Fredoso on the Washington Examiner:

Carter’s top campaign staffers were spotted distributing grainy photographs of Sanders arm-in-arm celebrating with two black men. Sanders was a part-owner of the Atlanta Hawks, and in the photograph he was celebrating a victory with two players who were pouring champagne over his head. Carter’s leaflet was intended to depress Sanders’s white vote.

“The Carter campaign also produced a leaflet noting that Sanders had paid tribute to Martin Luther King, Jr.”

Carter criticized Sanders, a former governor, for preventing Alabama Gov. and notorious segregationist George Wallace from speaking on Georgia state property. “I don’t think it was right for Governor Sanders to try to please a group of ultra-liberals, particularly those in Washington, when it means stifling communication with another state,” said Carter.

“‘I have no trouble pitching for Wallace votes and black votes at the same time,’ Carter told a reporter. Carter also said to another reporter, ‘I can win this election without a single black vote.’”

Upon receiving the endorsement of former Democratic Gov. Lester Maddox, Carter responded by praising the life-long segregationist: “He has brought a standard of forthright expression and personal honesty to the governor’s office, and I hope to live up to his standard.” Maddox had not only refused to serve blacks in the restaurant he once owned, but he had also greeted civil rights protestors with a gun, and made sticks available to his white customers with which to intimidate them.

“The campaign paid for radio ads for a fringe black candidate, C.B. King, in an effort to siphon black votes away from Sanders.”

“Then there was the radio commercial in which Carter said he would never be the tool of any ‘block’ vote, slurring over the word ‘block’ so that it could be mistaken for ‘black.’

Of course we all know that the only reason Carter was elected president in 1976 is because Ford was running for election after the Watergate scandals and then pardoned Nixon. Even Hillary Clinton could have beat Ford that year. And even if Ford had stepped down and a different Republican ran, Carter still would have won due to the stigma of Watergate.

Now onto that Moonbat Maxine Waters (D-California) and the Hill:

“I want those people talked to; I want them interviewed,” Waters told the liberal Bill Press Radio show in a podcast. “I want journalists to be all over those rallies and the marches with the birthers and the teabaggers.”

“What I’m looking for is the very people who carry the signs who are referring to the policies in very, very strange ways like ‘Obamacare’ and ‘Barry Obamacare with Kennedy,’” she said. “What I’ve been interested in is hearing from those people that everybody’s referring to — everybody on the Mall, in the rally.”

Waters use of the terms “birthers” and “teabaggers”, to me, is a sign of her latent racism. I guess she has forgotten that “teabagger” is a euphemism for a person who likes to provide certain activities unrelated to politics (except in the Oval Office when an intern in a blue dress is involved).

To give frank, if there were signs that read “Barry Obamacare with Kennedy”, I would be pretty put off by it. It’s a stupid catch phrase, and insensitive of Kennedy’s recent death.

I oppose ObamaCare, and darn near every policy Obama has set forth. Does this mean I am a racist? No! When I refer to Obama as a Marxist or a socialist, does that make me a racist? Again, the answer is no! Besides, Obama is a Marxist. So are his most dependable supporters.

Is Waters a racist when she refers to people protesting Obamacare as “birthers” and “teabaggers” (even though most of them wouldn’t perform such an act as that) because most of them are white? Yes! Is Waters a racist for calling for protesters of Obama’s policies because most of them may be white, gun-toting rednecks? Again, the answer is yes. With Carter, it just makes him look stupid, which is not hard to do.

But one question still remains: Where was their outrage when Bush was being called a Hitleresque Nazi during the previous eight years? Oh, wait, they were on the side of those making such personal attacks.
